Ethereal Old Mine + Hand Engraving
Collector’s Entries are limited variations on established Vellum Hall designs. Their details may differ from the present Cottage and are not guaranteed to return. This entry features hand engraved floral shoulders.
A home in spring light.
In the center is an intentionally flat and "spready" old mine cut natural diamond that is a true chameleon. It is a GIA J/SI1 and rather than deep, tunnel-like flashes, this cut throws light across the surface like sunlight moving across water. The reflections feel fluid and expansive rather than sharp and vertical. Its spread is right around 7 mm, giving it the large face up presence similar to that of a 1.5 carat old mine.
In tone, the diamond rests in warm ivory, with soft golden undertones that gather at the edges where the 18k bezel holds it. Depending on the light, it can skew either, and occasionally creating a bi-color effect.
That warmth informed the ring as a whole.
The subtle vine engraving along the shoulders was drawn from the same atmosphere this diamond creates. The Cottage has always been named for the idea of home: something grounded, intimate, and lived in.
For the wearer, a low profile ensures comfort and wearability, and the thicker comfort band still gives this ring understated presence. The vines are hand engraved into the shoulders creating further one of one detail.
On the Design
We created The Cottage to honor a longstanding and most-loved silhouette that serves a place in modern and vintage inspired collections alike. It was made to exist in both classic and more detailed, whimsical entries.
While the setting is wider and heavier, it still stacks beautifully will all different types of bands for a curated look.

I highly recommend Vellum Hall for all your stunning true antique (or antique inspired) jewelry needs! I worked with Vellum Hall on my gorgeous 3 stone ruby and OEC diamond ring, and it turned out perfectly! They have incredible attention to detail in her designs and she helped me find the perfect setting! They were also very patient with me when we were in the design consultation process. I can’t wait to see what’s next for this design house!

I spent months searching for the perfect antique old mine cut diamond for my elopement ring! Vellum Hall Jewelry was so helpful and patient! They sent me tons of pictures and videos!
Sometimes shopping for antique diamonds can be hard because diamond dealers can be a little judgmental if you’re not willing to spend 50k on a diamond, but I never felt any pressure with Vellum Hall!
